Submit original work only. Put the content of your guest post in the email itself rather than as an attachment. I will respond within a week. Email me.

Material should not have been published elsewhere. You may publish a short blurb on your blog to point to your guest post and after three weeks feel free to use on your site and elsewhere. This gives me a small window to showcase your work without competition.

I would appreciate a short bio. You may include links to your site, blog, twitter, etc. A picture is nice too (.jpg is preferred).

I prefer short posts (250-500 words), but longer posts are OK. (I try to give guest bloggers a bit of break, not everyone is a bottom-liner like me. Just realize that my readership is here for a brief daily reminder to be generous to their spouse. If you run long my readership is less likely to stick with you, so I’m less likely to accept your post.)

Content should be about concepts that will help a wife grow her marriage ~ generosity, sexuality, spirituality, date ideas, romance, integrity, etc. ~ all relating back to the marriage relationship and growing intimacy.

You do not need to send a graphic/picture for your blog post. If you do, it needs to have a photo credit. I play by the rules (roll your cursor over any image). Again, .jpg preferred.

I will not accept posts with material contrary to the teachings of the Bible.

I will likely make comments before or after the post and I will give the post a gentle editing (if need be). If significant changes are needed, I’ll run it by the author first.

I do understand that writing is a lot of work. I appreciate those folks who value my blog, desire to contribute and make the time and effort to create a post. Declining to use a guest post is not necessarily a reflection of the quality of the post or the quality of the writing. It may just be that it is not a good fit for The Generous Wife or that I’m looking for a different style or direction.
